GT: The Grande Finale, Celtics @ Raps

Celtics-Raptors has always been a great rivalry, though, with raps often coming out with the short end of the stick. With raptors on a pretty good win streak, celtics without rondo, and will probably be limiting pierce/garnett/green's minutes, we have a good chance to take a win!

Even if its a nontrivial game, ain't nothing like finishing the season with a W at home. So let's go Raps!

We win this and Philly and Blazers lose we become 12th worst team, which means barring something miraculous happening we give up the 12th pick in a weak draft, which means in 5 years I won't have to see a kid in the All-Star game and think "We gave up this kid for Kyle Lowry?!"

Go Raps Go

Also this would get me my over for the season wins number. Which is just as important, if not more so, in the overall scheme of things.

I heard Raps are 16-16 since Gay was brought in? so we played playoff basketball since then and thats with the terrible bench unit we currently have.... It would be nice to tip the scales to a 17-16 record. Go Raps!

I wasnt that excited about this season (I didnt think we would make the playoffs) but next season I dont see why not with our current starters and some good pick ups, and losing the dead weight of course.

I don't want to get this thread off topic, but with the current roster there's really no way to acquire good players, unless it's via trade (due to salary cap situation). I don't think trading our 'dead weight' will suffice, but I would love to be surprised! I see this team being hard pressed to keep the entire current core together AND significantly improve the roster - something's gotta give.

the end of season streak is padding that number. so realistically its more like 10-16.
